So it took me longer than "next few days" but there is now a two patch series in my maint branch that resolves this issue. If git-gui is built with a Tcl/Tk that understands Cygwin path translations it keeps the library path in POSIX format, but if it builds with a Tcl/Tk that is a native Win32 binary then it uses cygpath to translate the path. Although now that I think about it the relative path case should be able to be enabled again in the native Win32 codepath, as we only ran into problems with it on Cygwin. Anyway, it will be in gitgui-0.9.3, which I expect will be bundled into git 1.5.4.3, which Junio has stated may be next week. --8<-- diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 081d755..01e0a46 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -92,8 +92,12 @@ ifndef V REMOVE_F1 = && echo ' ' REMOVE `basename "$$dst"` && $(RM_RF) "$$dst" endif -TCL_PATH ?= tclsh TCLTK_PATH ?= wish +ifeq (./,$(dir $(TCLTK_PATH))) + TCL_PATH ?= $(subst wish,tclsh,$(TCLTK_PATH)) +else + TCL_PATH ?= $(dir $(TCLTK_PATH))$(notdir $(subst wish,tclsh,$(TCLTK_PATH))) +endif ifeq ($(uname_S),Darwin) TKFRAMEWORK = /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Resources/Wish.app @@ -127,7 +131,17 @@ GITGUI_MACOSXAPP := ifeq ($(uname_O),Cygwin) GITGUI_SCRIPT := `cygpath --windows --absolute "$(GITGUI_SCRIPT)"` - gg_libdir_sed_in := $(shell cygpath --windows --absolute "$(gg_libdir)") + + # Is this a Cygwin Tcl/Tk binary?
